Connecting the DoTs: A Summoner Guide

[OneWingedSora]

Updated rotation with me saving last AF stack to ensure I enter every DWT with full stacks. And also fitting in 2 festers in DWT.

Parses at around 1120 in 3 minutes. Hive weapon, full I170 left side and right side.


p.s: playing summoner on a controller is the true endgame ;-;


Now to level BLM to see what all the complaints are about.

It's worse when you try to make hotkeys by adding a keyboard to the mix like I did lol.

I've actually been doing the same with delaying the last AF stack largely in dungeons to line up the DWT with full AF stacks both on boss fights and on general mob to mob pulls (holding onto DWT). I felt I was doing higher damage overall after having settled on this by the time I hit 60. If we are able to use AF stacks along side DWT, then I hardly seem the reason not to abuse that aspect.

@OneWingedSora
Could you post a written version of your rotation? I'd like to test it out. Oh and I also agree, controller SMN is the new Titan EX

re pull: Shadowflare + Rouse + Spur + Raging Strikes


On pull: Bio 2 > Miasma > Bio > Enkindle > Ruin2 > Fester > Painflare > Ruin 2 > Energydrain > Ruin 2 > Aetherflow > Ruin 2 > Dreadwyrm Trance > Draconic Potion > Tridisaster(Should cast this just as raging strikes is about to fall off to make sure your dots are buffed by DWT+RS+Pot) Fester(Should also buffed by RS, needs high Spell Speed) > Miasma 2 > Swiftcast > Shadowflare > Ruin 3 > Ruin 2 > Fester > Deathflare.

I noticed you let Shadow Flare fall off and stay off for a few GCDs more than once. Was this an execution error or is this intentional? I don't really know how SMN at 60 works.

Yeah because there are other things that gets priority like not letting the main dots fall off, etc.

No offense intended whatsoever but I think you could have kept Shadow Flare at 0:51 and 1:37 with no damage to your rotation, those are the main times I was wondering if there was some deeper time frame or CD positioning at work.

Not trying to rag on you! Was just curious

Yea you are right , I just didn't see SF falling off for 2-3 secs a huge deal but it probably is ;-; I will keep that in mind, thanks !

When should I work in radiant shield? It looks like it's a huge dps increase for the tank at least

It would be something neat to try though. X-Pot-> Spur (resets pet stats, not sure if you could just use a vit pot in this regard for instant verification)

hmm not sure anyone responded/tested, but used a vit pot and spur, and Garuda got extra vit and the pot buff. But I had to spur it.
